Interestingly, you can end the sentence with "avec". The word "it" is implied (since the thing has been previously mentioned in the sentence). However, if you really want to emphasize the "it", you can say "avec ça".

Ca here will indicate an object ...

I think he meant to say I can/want to dance batchata with you/her .
That would be : je veux /je peux danser la batchata avec toi/elle

With a more polite tone : j’aimerais danser la batchata avec toi/elle .

yes , it is but it is more for seniority and formal talk in a formal setting . Here we are just chilling . Tu is more friendly , it means the barrier if knowing each other has been broken

Well you can but it shows the person lacks vocabulary . There are some contexts where one can end his sentence with ça. But in most cases unless you specified/named what you are talking about before the person will be lost and it just shows you lack an extensive vocabulary.

You need to remember there are 3 registre de langue( language register ) en français Or in any language:

- langage familier
-langage courant
-langage soutenu .
Ending your sentence with ça is in the second one (langage courant ) but very close to langage familier .
For instance . Favorolasupo est venue avec sa voiture au bureau ce matin, mais avant de venir elle a fait des course avec ça !!

Better version would be to still use voiture au lieu de ça .

Here is what he wrote. Look at what he enclosed in parentheses. HD clearly said he meant "it" as an object and not "him/her".

Can u end a sentence with a conjunction in French?

First, with/avec is a preposition and not a conjuction, but it can also be used as an adverb (which is the case here). Normally, prepositions can sometimes end a sentence in English language (it's called preposition stranding) but in French, it's almost never allowed. Instead, we use the corresponding adverbs. Here is the corresponding adverbs of some prepositions which we can use at the end of a sentence:

Dans (with) => dedans (in it)
Sur (on) => dessus (on it)
Sous (under) => dessous (under it)
Avec => avec (with it)
Pour (for) => pour (for it)
Etc.

From the above, you can see that "avec" and "pour" are special (same word for both the preposition and the adverb). Therefore, they can end a sentence in French as adverbs (which is the case in the original sentence). In French, it's natural to end a sentence with "avec" if the object of the preposition has been previously mentioned in the sentence. A popular example is "j'ai un nouveau ballon. J'aime jouer avec" (I have a new ball, I like playing with it). The word "it" refers to "the new ball" and since it has been previously mentioned in the sentence, it becomes optional at the end in French.

This is exactly the translation you'll get if you use any of the reputable electronic translators out there (Google translate, Deeple, etc.). While these translators aren't always perfect, they're known to use good French grammar, so you can be rest assured you're saying the right thing. But like I said earlier, you can add "ça" at the end if you really want to emphasize the pronoun or sound much more formal. Even though repeating the object after "avec" is perfectly correct, in both English and French, it does not add linguistic value and doesn't necessarily make your French any better (there are instances where you have to repeat the object [e.g. with the preposition "par"] but "avec" does not necessitate that).
